A representative for the brand told INSIDER that the Bronze Sands palette was developed to reach a wider range of skin tones.

"Bronze Sands was, in fact, created to cater to tan to rich skin tones," a representative for Huda Beauty told INSIDER. "When we originally launched our palettes we hoped all skin tones would benefit from them, and noticed a need for a much richer tone. Now, we are able to reach all tones between the complete collection."

Over the weekend, people criticized Leanne's complaints.

Many people reminded her that Huda Beauty makes two highlighter palettes that flatter light skin tones.

"This brand has two highlight palettes that work on lighter skin tones and one that works on darker skin tones. Being mad that not every single one is for you says a lot," @scrAMBERedeggs wrote.

Some people thought that Leanne should have celebrated Huda Beauty's efforts to be inclusive, even if she didn't directly benefit from it.

Several people insinuated that Leanne was being hypocritical, as her collaboration palette with Urban Decay only seems to flatter light complexions.

Later that night, Leanne tweeted that her comments were taken out of context. "Being misunderstood is a bummer. It would be cool if everyone knew everyone else's heart," she wrote.

Leanne's fans came to her defense during the controversy.

"As a fan of @KristenxLeanne I know what she's saying - they should've been swatched on more darker skin tones which is what the palette is made for to show how it's meant for men and women of [color]!! It's been a misinterpreted tweet!" @larxnxo tweeted.

But people fired back at Leanne, claiming that they understood her comments.

"You LITERALLY said 'you'd hope with that many pans they'd make one light enough for lighter skin tones,'" Twitter user Karol Rodriguez wrote. "Which is grossly overlooking how many products are catered to our skin tone and almost expecting it to cater to you like [you] deserve it."

It appears that both Leanne and Huda Beauty have not publicly addressed the controversy since.
